SARA IMPEY at the V&A

The Victoria And Albert Museum is presenting it's first major exhibition of quilts from 20th March to 4th July 2010. The exhibition is exploring 300 years of British Quilt Making and will show more than 65 quilts, as well as traditional quilts there will be quilts made by contemporary artists Tracey Emin and ERTF member Sara Impey. ERTF members will be familiar with Sara's work, we were lucky enough to have two of Sara's quilts in our 'Moving Forward' exhibition at Cambridge in 2009. Sara also gave an inspiring talk to members during one of our conferences.

ERTF members will also be fortunate to have the opportunity to take part in a Show and Tell Event with input from Sara. This will be a members only event held in Essex and tickets will be limited.Tickets will be available at the April AGM.In the meantime there are lots of events going on at the V&A in connection with the Quilt Exhibition! for more details click here QUILTS
